g.  Gills,  which  extend  as  four  flattened  transversely,  subdivided  sacks  from  the  palps  p  to  the  jioint  y,  at  the  edge  of  the  mantel. 

g  e.   Superficial  uet-work  of  the  generative  ducts  as  they  appear  when  the  oyster  is  spawning. 

h.  Groove  in  the  hinae  end  of  the  left  valve,  which  receives  the  ridge  developed  in  the  corresponding  situation  on  the  right  one. 

l.  Dark  brown  elastic  body  or  ligament  by  which  the  valves  are  held  together  at  the  hinge. 

M.  Great  adductor  muscle,  which  is  here  viewed  from  tho  end,  and  whicli  ia  attached  to  the  inner  faces  of  the  valves  over  the  dark  purple  soars. 

It  opposes  the  elastic  ligament  and  closes  the  valves,  and  corresponds  to  the  posterior  adductor  muscle  of  dimyary  mollusks. 
m.  Honth. 

m  t.  Mantle  of  the  left  side  fringed  with  two  rows  of  tentacles  ;  m  V,  portion  of  the  mantel  of  the  right  side. 
n  to  2  marks  the  extent  to  which  the  right  and  left  loaves  of  the  mantle  are  joined  together;  the  hood  thus  formed  above  and  at  the  sides  of 

the  palps  ia  called  the  cucullns. 
P.  Palps  exposed,  a  part  of  the  cucullus  on  the  right  being  cut  away. 
p  d.  Pedal  muscle  of  right  side,  which  is  also  inserted  upon  the  shell  of  the  same  side. 
p  g.  Parieto-splanchnic  ganglion. 
8.  G«nital  opening  of  the  right  side. 
8  g.  Supraoesophageal  ganglion. 
V.  "Vent  or  anus. 

V  e.  Ventricle  of  the  heart,  which  is  dilated,  or  in  the  condition  of  diastole. 

xxz.  Areas  at  the  edge  of  tho  inner  surface  of  the  shell,  where  intruded  mud  has  been  inclosed  by  a  thin  laminee  of  shelly  matter  deposited  by 
the  mantle. 

y.  Point  at  the  posterior  extremity  of  the  gills,  where  the  right  and  left  leaves  of  the  mantle  are  joined  together  by  the  membrane  which  sup- 
ports the  gills. 

EXPLANATION  OF  FIO.  2. 

This  figure  was  drawn  from  a  dissection  of  a  hardened  specimen  which'had  been  removed  from  the  shell,  and  is  viewed  from  the  left  side, 
the  superficial  tissues  of  the  left  half  of  the  body-mass  having  been  removed  in  order  to  display  the  surface  of  the  "liver"  L,  with  its  largo 
clusters  of  minute  follicles,  and  part  of  the  course  of  the  intestine  i.  Atj  the  widened  pyloric  part  of  the  intestine  is  shown,  which  incloses 
the  crystalline  style.  The  ventricle  vc  and  auricle  are  much  contracted,  and  a  spacious  pericardiac  space  is  shown  on  either  side  of  it,  g  e. 
Stratum  of  reproductive  follicles.    The  remaining  letters  of  reference  are  the  same  as  in  Fig.  1. 

EXPLANATION  OF  FIG,  3- 

This  figure  of  the  viscera  of  the  oyster  is  also  drawn  in  part  from  the  hardened  soft  parts,  but  is  viewed  from  the  right  side.  The  great 
duels  d  of  the  "liver"  L  are  bhowncut  open  longitudinally,  and  are  representt^d  as  opening  dii'ectly  into  the  cavity  of  the  stomach  «(,  in  front 
of  which  the  (esophagus  oe  is  also  shown  running  back  from  the  mouth  m.  This  figure  shows  almost  the  entire  intestine,  with  its  widened 
anterior  eudj,  and  its  course  and  curvature  as  here  represented  is  what  will  bo  found  constant,  even  when  hundreds  of  specimens  are  exam- 
ined. Nearly  all  the  substance  ol  the  body-mass  has  been  carefully  removed  from  the  right  half  of  the  body,  and  whei"6  the  edges  of  the 
body  have  been  cut  through  the  stratum  of  reproductive  tissue  i?  «  is  also  shown.  The  corragated  outer  surface  of  tho  inner  or  lower  palp 
at  P.    The  remaining  lettors  have  tho  same  significance  as  in  the  previons  figures. 

EXPLANATION  OF  FJQ.  4. 

This  represents  a  sectioa  or  slice  cut  from  the  soft  parts  of  au  oystsr  at  the  level  of  the  dotted  lino  o  iu  Fig.  3,  and  viewed  from  its 
anterior  surface.    Tho  tissues  and  structures  which  have  been  cut  across  in  this  section  are  as  follows: 
a'.  The  dorsal  or  posterior  branch  of  tho  groat  splanchnic  artery. 
a".  The  anterior  or  ventral  branch  of  the  splanchuic  artery. 
b  r.  Branchial  vessels, 
c.  The  connective  tissue  which  envelopes  the  organs  contained  in  tho  body^mass  and.  forms  the  principal  portion  of  the  substance  of  the 

animal  in  winter. 
g.  The  gills  cut  across,  showing  their  hollow  interiors. 
g  e.  Stratum  of  reproductive  follicles,  which  inimediatoly  upderlics  tho  mantel  layer  mt.    Intestinal  canal  cut  through  at  two  points,  ii 

posteriorly  and  anteriorly,  showing  the  manner  in  which  the  intestinal  walls  are  folded  inwai*ds  upon  themselves. 
L  L.  Hight  and  left  lobes  of  the  liver,  embedded  iu  the  connective  tissue   and  most  considerably  developed  at  the  sides  and  below  th« 

stomach. 
B  b.  Snprabr&nchial  epaoe. 
«  t.  Stomach,  showing  its  irregular  form  and  oouuectiou  by  moans  of  spacious  ducts  with  tho  "liver."
